In August 2000, the quiet Cornish village of Carnkie became the scene of one of Britain's most devastating family murder cases. Over the course of just 24 hours, Lee Ford murdered his wife, Lesley, and her four children before attempting to hide what he had done and convince neighbours they had simply disappeared. As the truth slowly emerged, investigators uncovered a story of control, abuse, deception and unimaginable violence.

We're taking a short mid-season break this week, but rather than leave the feed silent, we thought we'd share an episode from Mark's other podcast, Dead Famous.

This episode forms part of a recent trilogy examining famous figures whose lives ended in scandal, criminality and public disgrace. It's a very different show to Seeing Red, but we suspect many of you will find the story every bit as compelling.

This week on Seeing Red, we travel back to Texas in the 1980s to examine a case that began with the brutal murder of Christine Morton — and led to one of the most shocking miscarriages of justice in modern American criminal history.

Her husband, Michael Morton, quickly became the focus of the investigation and was convicted of her murder. But years later, serious questions began to emerge about what had really happened, and wh...

In July 2005, 18-year-old Anthony Walker was attacked in a Liverpool park in a crime that shocked the UK and became one of Britain’s most devastating modern hate crime cases.

Anthony was intelligent, ambitious, and preparing for university when a night out with friends turned into something unthinkably violent. As the investigation unfolded, detectives uncovered a brutal attack driven by racism — and a case that would sp...

This week on Seeing Red, Bethan takes the reins solo to untangle the disturbing and deeply tragic case of Constance Marten and Mark Gordon.

In early 2023, the aristocrat-turned-fugitive and her convicted rapist partner vanished with their newborn daughter, Baby Victoria, triggering a nationwide manhunt that gripped the UK. As the couple travelled across the country attempting to evade police and social services, questions mounted: w...

In 1994, Gordon Wardell went on TV claiming a gang of men in clown masks had attacked him, tied him up, robbed a building society… and murdered his wife, Carol.

Which is… a lot.

Carol Wardell was a devoted sister and daughter, quietly getting on with her life — not the kind of person you’d expect to end up at the centre of something this violent.

So how does someone like that end up strangled and left at the ...

Painkillers. Cold medicine. Morphine, if you're Mark! Something to take the edge off a headache.

In 1982, people across Chicago did exactly that — and some of them never got back up.

This week on Seeing Red, we’re talking about the case that changed everything: the Chicago Tylenol murders. Cyanide-laced capsules. Random victims. A killer who never had to meet the people they murdered — just quietly tamper with bottl...

In April 1991, 21-year-old Jo Ramsden disappeared from the Dorset town of Bridport, a place she knew well and where her routine rarely changed. When she didn’t return home, concern quickly turned into a desperate search.

Witnesses reported seeing Jo with a man in a distinctive zig-zag patterned jumper — a sighting that would become central to the case.

Despite strong suspicions around a known offender, no one has ever bee...

This week on Seeing Red, we meet a woman who looked like she’d stepped straight out of a 1950s love story — but left a trail of bodies behind her.

Nanny Doss was charming, chatty… and deadly. With a fixation on love and happily-ever-afters, she approached marriage the same way Bethan approaches an all you can eat buffet — aggressively and without hesitation — each one ending in a strangely convenient d...

Michael Griffiths dealt in antiques — rare, highly sought-after pieces. But in 2013, he became the target of something far less refined: a gang of burglars chasing a quick payday. What followed wasn’t just a robbery gone wrong — it was brutal, calculated, and left behind a trail of evidence as chaotic as the crime itself.

This week, we dig into how greed turned deadly… and why some people will kill for fast ...

In 1995, 15-year-old Naomi Smith left her home in Nuneaton, Warwickshire — and never returned.

What followed was a case that would shock a community, expose uncomfortable truths, and leave lasting scars on a town that thought it was safe.

In this episode, Bethan explores Naomi’s life, the events leading up to her murder, and the investigation that followed — asking how something so brutal could happen in broad dayli...

In Part One, we follow the life of a bright, warm, and deeply loved young woman whose ordinary Friday bike ride would become anything but. We trace Anne’s world — her family, her relationship, her work, her future plans — and the quiet chain of decisions happening in the background that no one could have known were converging.
